Everyone wants to wow when they walk down the street. So, fashionistas have to keep up with the latest trends and fashion. Apart from keeping up with Kardashians, it also means shopping online. Not only do digital stores have a fantastic collection, but they are cheaper and easily accessible. There is one teeny, tiny, teensy problem, though: delivery. To get from the online store to your house, the shopper has to pay a small fortune. When the delivery charge is nearly 25% of the overall purchase, it’s a huge problem indeed.

Thankfully, there are ways to slash delivery costs without harming street cred.

Shop With Free Retailers

Yes, they do exist, but the majority of self-respecting trendsetters know that already. After all, fashion-enthusiasts tend to avoid them like the plague! Well, now is the time to stop because certain outlets offer free shipping and an excellent selection of items. ASOS is without a doubt the market leader at the moment. With its own brand as well as boutique and high-end products, there are bargains galore. Better yet, the six-day free delivery service doesn’t cost a penny. Worry not, impatient ones, because parcels usually turn up after two or three working days.

Invest In A Yearly Service

Not to seem biased, but it’s time to head back to ASOS for their year-long next day delivery service. For a whopping $10, the good people at everyone’s favorite online store will deliver the next day or on a day of your choice. The idea of paying ten dollars for a package is ridiculous as a one-off. However, for the whole year, it’s a no-brainer. Just to show this post doesn’t have shares in you know who, Amazon Prime is a similar competitor. The fantastic thing about Prime is it is free for the 30 day trial period.

Outsource

How can a customer outsource his or hers delivery needs? A person has to use the in-house service, right? No, that isn’t the case thanks to a company such as Shiply. In layman’s terms, it’s a third party which connects courier with customers. All a user has to do is fill out a form, browse the listings and choose the best fit. Shiply’s reviews encourage trust because everyday people and reputable companies use it alike. Plus, the space-saving element makes it cheaper and better for the environment. Compared to the majority of delivery services, it sounds superior already!

Hit The High Street

Of course, customers only need items delivering when they shop online. Okay, one or two products may be too big to fit in the car, but they are outliers. Generally, online shopping involves paying a courier to transport a package to someone’s front door. Obviously, there is no need to fork out if consumers get into their car and drive down to the store. Once there, it’s a simple process of paying for the goods and leaving. There is no hassle, no fuss, and, best of all, no extra costs.

 

Delivery is essential, but it doesn’t have to break the bank.
